From a consumer perspective, Mac is an important platform. If developers can't count on Java being good enough there, then they'll need a different cross-platform technology. And alternatives exist (such as Flash or HTML or Silverlight). Or if not cross platform, then Microsoft has plenty of good client technology for Windows. Bad Java on Mac means Java isn't very useful all around.
